Quickly becoming the preferred way to manage card processing fees, businesses using the ZERO FEE Surcharging Program, Merchants can at the time of the sale, give their customers the choice to pay with cash or card.
The customer receipt automatically reflects the cost difference. If the customer opts to pay with cash, the customer service fee is simply removed (this is only shown when using a smart terminal). The merchant needs to notify the customer of the transaction fee.

This program offers you the best of both payment options and can be a net positive.

Congress has passed a law that businesses are permitted to offer a discount to customers who pay with cash.   This law is known as the Durbin Amendment (part of the 2010 Dodd-Frank law).  Because of this several Card industry changes went into effect with regards to the credit card company’s federal class action litigation settlement which has taken effect and is now gaining support with Businesses and Consumers, and is quickly becoming the preferred way to manage card processing fees. The settlement that the card companies agreed to requires Visa and MasterCard and other card brands to change some rules for merchants who accept their cards, including allowing merchants to “offer discounts to customers who pay with payment forms less expensive than Bank payment cards.  Businesses can choose to give an incentive and to encourage customers to pay by alternative methods other than a credit/debit cards including cash in order to automatically receive a discount which is applied at the time of sale.

 Q. How does ZERO FEES Surcharging works?

With new terminal programming, your customer's receipt will automatically calculate and show a different cost for cash or credit based on the method of payment (with the smart terminal only). When your customer purchases a $25.00 item you receive $25.00 in your bank account.  The customer's receipt will show the $25.00 purchase plus a $.96 card transaction fee and the sales will be for $26.96

 Q. Will my customers be upset with this fee and go elsewhere? Won’t I lose business?

Not according to other business owners’ experiences. Offering Surcharging is viewed as a net positive to customers shopping with you.  Customers do not carry a lot of cash with them, those that do may want to take advantage of the savings and feel good about getting the discount by using cash and want to shop with you again, because of this.  However, the use of cash is on the decline, the hassle of going to an ATM and paying those fees (sometimes north of 5%) and the risk of carrying cash make it safer and more cost-effective for your customers to use their cards when paying and everyone knows cash comes with a cost of use as well.

 Q. Is this program legal?

Yes, Surcharging is legal in all 50 states. The Dodd-Frank Act prohibits payment card networks “from inhibiting the ability of anyone to provide a Surcharge for payment by cash, checks, debit cards, or credit cards.”

 Q. I’ve never heard of a Surcharging Program before, is it new?

No, businesses have been offering discounts for those who pay with cash for years. In the United States, a lower posted price for cash is very common at gas and service stations across the country.

 Q. Will this program eliminate my monthly processing bill?

Almost, some merchants will still see some small fees on their bills due to the variations in Interchange prices, but most will see a drastic (80-100%) reduction in their processing bill. The Payment Portal will set up your bill on a daily discount structure, meaning we will take your fees out every day instead of a lump sum at the end of the month. Your monthly statement will show a near-zero cost of processing with the money for the goods and services you sold showing up in your deposit. You will also have to upgrade your current credit card terminal.  The terminal upgrade is just a fraction of what your monthly total fees are prior to changing over to this program. This is a wonderful program for those merchants that are tired of paying monthly fees associated with processing credit cards.
